Might be a good deal for the "right" person

These are used and by the descrition beat up Asi panels, same as the ones sold for 2.40 watt , same seller a year or so ago

Seem's the seller got another batch, these would appear to be the runts of the litter.

Asi, is very tolerate of broken Glass, much more the Si, so if you in the need of some cheap panels, don't mind that you will have to do some repairs, this could be the deal for you

I don't know the seller and I have never seen the panels .. just a heads up for the bargin hunters

I bought 16 of these from this guy and the panels that work put out OK,
However, of the 16 I have 13 left and the problem is they develop intermittent connections where the wires meet the thin film. I personally will never buy thin film again....stay with what keeps working

i have 32 o the MSX 43's hi voltage
They were installed April 1999
I can barely get 998 watts when the sun is at right angles at solar noon
ie 32 watts or down 28% in 7 years
they do work, just not that well

They do work then become intermittent in time. Will never buy thin film again.
